Aim: to evaluate the effects of different cementation techniques on bond strength (BS), after fiber posts cementation. Methods and Materials: Thirty roots of human mandibular premolars prepared endodontically and divided according to the combination of adhesive application technique (manual passive, using lentulo-spiral instrument, applying the cement onto the post surface and the cementation system (Adper Single Bond 2/RelyX ARC Specimens were transversally sectioned into six 1-mm-thick serial slices, which were subjected to BS testing (n=7), Data were analyzed using two-way ANOVA and Bonferroni post-hoc test (α=5%). Results: Bond strength values significantly increased with using lentulo-spiral instrument (P<0.001). Conclusion: The study concluded that techniques with active application lentulo spiral resulted in higher bond strength values. The mode of adhesive application influences the results.
